[0022] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present application to clearly describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are part of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all the embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field based on the embodiments in the present application belong to the scope of protection of this application.

[0023] The terms "first", "second", etc. in the specification and claims of the present application are used to distinguish similar objects, and are not used to describe a specific order or sequence. It should be understood that the data used in this way can be interchangeable under appropriate circumstances, so that the embodiments of the present application can be implemented in an order other than those illustrated or described here, and the objects distinguished by "first", "second", etc. are generally of one type, and the number of objects is not limited. For example, the first object can be one or more. In addition, "and / or" in the specification and claims represents at least one of the connected objects, and the character " / " generally indicates that the objects associated with each other are in an "or" relationship.

[0024] The technical solution provided by the embodiment of the present application is described in detail below through specific embodiments and their application scenarios in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0025] like Figure 1 As shown, it is a flow chart of a communication method 100 provided by an exemplary embodiment of the present application. The method 100 can be executed by a first electronic device, specifically by software and / or hardware installed in the first electronic device. The method 100 can include the following steps.

[0026] S110: The first electronic device establishes a communication connection with a second electronic device.

[0027] Please refer to Figure 2a The first electronic device, as a main device, may be a smart phone, etc., which is configured with at least a first SIM card and a second SIM card, that is, the first electronic device may be in a multi-SIM card (such as a first SIM card and a second SIM card) use state.

[0028] In addition, the first electronic device also has a built-in wireless personal area network (WPAN, such as Bluetooth, etc.), wireless local area network (WLAN), carrier-free communication technology (Ultra Wideband, UWB), millimeter wave, etc., and the WPAN, WLAN, UWB, millimeter wave, etc. can be used for the communication connection between the first electronic device and the second electronic device.

[0029] Correspondingly, the second electronic device serves as an auxiliary device of the first electronic device, and the second electronic device has independent communication capabilities, such as cellular capabilities. Of course, the second electronic device may also be built-in with WPAN, WLAN, UWB, millimeter wave, etc., for communication connection between the first electronic device and the second electronic device. Optionally, in this embodiment, the second electronic device may be a smart watch (such as Figure 2a As shown), smartphones, bracelets, smart glasses, etc.

[0030] Based on this, in this embodiment, the first electronic device can establish a communication connection with the second electronic device via a communication technology such as WPAN, WLAN, UWB or millimeter wave, such as the second electronic device can maintain a connection pair with the first communication device via WPAN (such as Bluetooth), WLAN or a direct peer-to-peer connection. Establish a connection pair.

[0031] Of course, the specific communication connection mode used between the first electronic device and the second electronic device can be determined according to the delay, power consumption, communication speed, etc. involved in the communication process. For example, the aforementioned Bluetooth technology may have the problem of slow communication speed and large delay; WLAN technology has fast communication speed but high power consumption; UWB technology has the advantages of fast communication speed and low power consumption; millimeter wave technology has the characteristics of fast communication speed and low delay, but high power consumption.

[0032] S120, start the first communication mode.

[0033] Among them, the first communication mode (also called joint communication mode) is a mode of multi-device collaborative communication. For example, in this embodiment, the first communication mode may include: the first electronic device processes the signal reception and / or transmission on the first SIM card, the first electronic device does not process the signal reception on the second SIM card, and the second electronic device processes the signal reception on the second SIM card, such as the second electronic device is in the paging state of the second SIM card. That is to say, by starting the first communication mode, this embodiment can realize the communication fusion of the first electronic device and the second electronic device.

[0034] For example, the first electronic device is in the paging state of the first SIM card, and only processes the signal reception and / or signal transmission on the first SIM card, but does not process the signal reception on the second SIM card, etc. At the same time, the second electronic device is in the paging state of the second SIM card, and is responsible for processing the signal reception (such as calls, messages, etc.) of the second SIM card. In this way, it is possible to avoid the problem that the first electronic device needs to process the signal reception and / or transmission of the first SIM card and the second SIM card at the same time, which causes the data receiving channel (RX PATH) of the first SIM card to fall back, thereby causing the communication capability of the first SIM card to decrease, thereby ensuring the communication performance on the first SIM card.

[0035] In this embodiment, when the first electronic device starts the first communication mode, for the signal on the second SIM card (such as an incoming call reminder signal, a paging message, etc.) received by the second electronic device while the second electronic device is processing the signal reception on the second SIM card, the user can directly process it based on the second electronic device, or the second electronic device can synchronize the received signal on the second SIM card (or SIM status information) to the first electronic device for display, and then the user decides whether to process the signal on the second SIM card based on the first electronic device or the second electronic device, thereby ensuring the user's flexibility in processing the signal on the second SIM card.

[0036] In this case, taking the process of "the second electronic device synchronizing the received signal on the second SIM card to the first electronic device for display, and then the user decides whether to process the signal on the second SIM card based on the first electronic device or the second electronic device" as an example, the first communication mode may also include the second electronic device synchronizing the received signal on the second SIM card to the first electronic device, and the first electronic device can receive the signal on the second SIM card sent by the second electronic device.

[0037] For example, assuming that the signal on the second SIM card is a call reminder on the second SIM card, then when the second electronic device receives the call reminder on the second SIM card, it can send the call reminder to the first electronic device in real time while displaying the call reminder (such as vibration, ringing), that is, the first electronic device can obtain the call reminder of the second SIM card through the second electronic device, and display the call reminder on the second SIM card on the UI status bar, that is, the first electronic device and the second electronic device both perform call reminders, which is equivalent to the first electronic device being in a dual-card state.

[0038] Based on this, if the first electronic device is in a game state (i.e., the data on the first SIM card cannot be interrupted) or the data state on the first SIM card is not suitable for data interruption or the first electronic device has other situations that are not suitable for answering calls on the second SIM card, the user can choose to answer the incoming call on the second SIM card on the second electronic device and ignore the incoming call reminder on the first electronic device; if the first electronic device is in standby mode, then the user can choose to answer the incoming call on the second SIM card on the first electronic device, so that the user can process the received signal on the second SIM card according to his own needs.

[0039] It can be understood that the process of the second electronic device synchronizing the received signal (or SIM status information) on the second SIM card to the first electronic device may include: the second electronic device sends the incoming voice data received by the telephone communication module to the first electronic device via a communication module such as Bluetooth, wifi, UWB or millimeter wave, and then the first electronic device sends the received incoming call reminder (such as incoming voice data) to the audio output device for output and display.

[0040] Of course, in addition to the incoming call reminder information on the second SIM card, the processing method of short messages, video calls, etc. on the second SIM card is the same as the processing method of the aforementioned incoming call reminder information, thereby providing users with a more flexible information processing method and ensuring user experience.

[0041] It is worth noting that the first electronic device and the second electronic device can exchange data, and the second electronic device can transmit data based on the second SIM card without being affected by the first SIM card, that is, the first SIM card and the second SIM card are independent of each other. In addition, the first SIM card and the second SIM card can be embedded SIM cards (Embedded-SIM, eSIM) cards, etc., which are not limited here.

[0042] Further, as a possible implementation, the user can switch the communication mode according to communication needs. For example, when the first communication mode needs to be activated, the first electronic device can receive a first input and switch from the second communication mode to the first communication mode in response to the first input.

[0043] The first input may be voice input, touch input, key input, etc. performed by a user on the first electronic device.

[0044] The second communication mode may include: the first electronic device processes the signal reception and / or transmission on the first SIM card, and the first electronic device processes the signal reception on the second SIM card. That is, the first SIM card and the second SIM card on the first electronic device work at the same time, while only the second SIM card works on the second electronic device. Based on this, in the second communication mode, the first electronic device and the second electronic device can share a mobile phone number (such as the second SIM card), and the first electronic device and the second electronic device vibrate at the same time when a call comes in, and any electronic device can answer or make a call, but the first electronic device and the second electronic device cannot make calls or conduct other communications, such as the second electronic device cannot make calls to the first electronic device or send short messages, etc.

[0045] Furthermore, in addition to the aforementioned switching from the second communication mode to the first communication mode, as a possible implementation, the user can also switch from the first communication mode to the second communication mode according to their own needs, so as to improve the flexibility of the communication process.

[0046] For example, if the user does not need to perform other tasks such as games based on the first SIM card, or the first SIM card is in standby mode, then the user can initiate a second input based on the first electronic device. Accordingly, the first electronic device receives the second input (such as voice input, touch input, etc.) and responds to the second input, and then switches from the first communication mode to the second communication mode. As a result, the first electronic device is back in a dual-card dual-standby state of the first SIM card and the second SIM card, that is, the first electronic device can process the signal reception on the second SIM card, thereby improving the flexibility of the communication process while reducing the power consumption of the second electronic device.

[0047] It is worth noting that please refer to Figure 2b In the aforementioned communication method provided in this embodiment, the communication fusion is performed on the first electronic device and the second electronic device without improving the RF front-end architecture in the first electronic device and the second electronic device. In other words, the communication method provided in this application is implemented based on the original RF front-end architecture of the first electronic device and the second electronic device, thereby avoiding the difficulty and complexity of the communication process and reducing the cost.

[0048] In this embodiment, in the embodiment of the present application, for a first electronic device configured with a first SIM card and a second SIM card, by turning on the first communication mode, the second electronic device processes the signal reception of the second SIM card. In this way, it is possible to avoid the problem of performance degradation of the first SIM card caused by the need for the first electronic device to simultaneously process the paging of the first SIM card and the second SIM card, while effectively ensuring the communication capability of the device in dual-card or multi-card mode.

[0049] In addition, by switching between the first communication mode and the second communication mode, the flexibility of the communication process and the user experience can be ensured.

[0050] like Figure 3 As shown, it is a flow chart of a communication method 300 provided by an exemplary embodiment of the present application. The method 300 can be executed by a second electronic device, specifically by software and / or hardware installed in the second electronic device. The method 300 can include the following steps.

[0051] S310: The second electronic device establishes a communication connection with a first electronic device that starts a first communication mode.

[0052] S320: The second electronic device processes signal reception on the second SIM card.

[0053] The first electronic device is provided with a first SIM card and a second SIM card, and the first communication mode includes: the first electronic device processes the reception and / or transmission of signals on the first SIM card, and the first electronic device does not process the reception of signals on the second SIM card; the second electronic device processes the reception of signals on the second SIM card.
